Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's quite a long time since I read and enjoyed the books, but I believe Raistlin's cough came from his wizard's Test!. They were very dangerous - and that's how he got his hourglass eyes, too!. I think! Otherwise, an equivalent disease might be TB, which used to be a killer!. Characterised by coughing up blood!.

I also liked his humanity in his feelings for Bupu!. I can't remember if Raistlin came into it, but I enjoyed the rehabilitation of Caramon!.

You've made me want to read the books again!Www@QuestionHome@Com
